Harry Potter FAIL.
So I was in class until noon today, and the boyfriend had meetings until 3, so we decided to meet for a late lunch at 3pm and then go see Deathly Hallows at 440. I went to the theater right after class to buy the tickets ($25 for TWO?!?!?!), and then I wandered aimlessly around downtown Chicago until 3 checking out the Christmas displays and window shopping (has anyone been to Lush? The cosmetics place? I LOVE THAT PLACE NOW!) and then headed over to meet with the boyfriend. Who didn't show. Ever.
Naturally, I kinda freaked out. I mean, I waited for him for 45 minutes. And then I started thinking...you know, his phone probably just died. He never remembers to plug it in. Maybe he just went over to the theater hoping I'd figure it out. By this time I hadn't eaten in almost 9 hours, and I was super cranky...and trying to figure out how I was going to pay for our apartment by myself if he'd been stabbed on the Red Line. But I went to the theater and I got in line and I waited...and waited...and then they let the line in...
By now I'd called him three times and sent him about 5 frantic texts and he was over an hour and a half late and I was thinking...if he's not here by the time this movie starts I'm going to return the tickets, and then I'm going to go home and see if he's there, and then I'm going to start calling hospitals. Five minutes before the movie started he finally called me. I think I answered the phone by shouting "OH MY GOD!" He was stuck in a meeting without his phone, apparently, and it went over by an hour and twenty minutes. FACEPALM.
So he came and got me at the theater, and we went to the grocery store and bought ALL OF THE FOOD because we were both starving, and now I'm waiting patiently for my giant plate of pasta and trying not to pass out. We're going to try again tomorrow. God, what a useless day. Anyone see the movie? Is it good?
